The World Steel Association (worldsteel) has published its 2018 Steel Statistical Yearbook.
worldsteel’s Steel Statistical Yearbook presents a cross-section of steel industry statistics. It contains comprehensive statistics from 2008 to 2017 on crude steel production by country and process, steel production by product, steel trade by product, apparent steel use and apparent steel use per capita by country, as well as production and trade of pig iron and directly reduced iron. It also includes data on production and trade of iron ore and trade of scrap.
The statistics were collected from members of worldsteel and various international organisations.
